Shriwardhan - Harihareshwar
Gentle
winds, soft sands and inviting waters make Shriwardhan Bay irresistible to beach
lovers.
And if one relishes sea-food, there is no dearth of delicacies to sample here.
The adventurers can even take a small boat to the north side of the bay and
explore a land where the 'Peshwas' or Prime minister of Maratha Kingdom, originally
resided.
The 'Peshwa Smarak' is of interest to most people who visit Shriwardhan. The
town of Harihareshwar is known for its tranquil and picturesque beach and is
also famous for the temple of Harihareshwar.
